AGAINST the combined influence OF Fort
Worth, Bowie, Gainesville, Montague and
Wichita Falls, Henrietta secured the Missouri
Pacific extension, and against their combined
efforts she will secure the Rock Island. We
take great pleasure in hereby notifying the
public, and the above towns in particular that
the Rock Island Road Will be built to Henri
eta Henrietta Independent
Tie above is, although not intended to
be so, very hsttering to Fort Worth.
But the truth is, Fort Worth has
no more influence in determining
the location IF the Rock Island
than it has with the man in
the moon This city will try to secure
that great road for itself, perhaps, but
such effort does not imply influence, pos
sessed or attempted, on the location Of
the route otherwise. The Independent is
singing sn old song, and ore this city has
been forced to listen to from several
other towns in the past, ard that song is
very unjust to Fort Worth. As for THE
GAZETTE it is the province of this paper
to print the mostreliable railroad news OBJ
tainable, and not to locate routes for great
railroad companies. If the Rock Island
touches Henrietta THE GAZETTE will
print the fact and rejoice with the people
of that town, but neither The GAZETTE
nor Fort Worth is so presumptuous as to
seek to say to the road what route 1t
shall adopt, The Independent Will feel
better when June apples are all gone.

What the Lick telescope will do will
depend ON men who have the handling of
it. 1t will not make discoveries of itself,
All that can be said of it is that it will
place in the hands of painstaking COM
petent observers the best means now in
existence of scanning the heavens. If
they Go not turn the means to account it
will not be the fault of the telescope. In
times past some small telescopes have
made more important discoveries than
stand to the credit of some of the large
telescopes of our day. But this is not be-
cause the small instruments were better,
but because in proportion to the progress
of exploration the unexplored area of the
heavens naturally diminishes. There is
less to be discovered now than there was
in the time of the elder Herschel.
Nor is it logical to deride large tele-
scopes because Lord Roses great instru-
ment has added little to its early nebular
discovery. His telescope is powerful.
but it is not exact or accurate, and every
observer knows that exaCtness and pre-
cisiOn in a telescope are even more inn
portant than power. Professor Davidson
says that the Lick telescope will unveil
stars of one degree fainter magnitude
than can be detected by the instruments
now in use. This would be no small gain.
A correspondingly increased power ought
to add to our knowledge of Mars, which
is the planet of most immediate interest
to observers on this globe.-San Fran
cisco Call

SUBSCRIPTIONS /:
The Dyak as a Climber.

The Hill Dyaks of Borneo are expert
climbers. Mr.. Hornaby, while collect
ing specimens of natural history, saw
Dyak ascend large tapang tree, five feet
in diameter at the base, straight as
ships mast, and without the smallest
limb or knot for 100 feet up.
The man went up the tree to secure
bees nest hanging from the under side of
the lowest limb. The nest was simply
a large, Naked triangular piece of white
comb.
A Dyak gladden. had been put up the
previous year, and reached from the
ground to the branches. 1t consisted of
seven twenty foot bamboo poles held al
most end to end alongside the trunk by
sharp pegs driven into the soft wood
about two feet apart.
The pegs Were driven first on one side
of the poles and then on the other, and
to them the bamboOs were dashed by rat
tans, which held them firmly about eight
inches from the tree. These pegs served
as the rungs of the ladder.
The builder must have been q bold
man, with nerves of steel, He was
obliged to let the ends of the poles over
lap a few feet in order to build the LADDER
with safety to himself.
The completion of the ladder was most
difficult. Clinging to the slight bamboo
pole, 100 feet from the ground, he hauled
up the last bamboo, twenty feet long,
drove in the peg, lashed the lower end of
the pole to it, and then assembled that
shaking bamboo to fasten it at the top.
The Dyak honey hunter fastened to his
back basket to receive the honey. Max
ing up his tOrchwood, with which tn
smoke the bees out of the nest and away
from himself, he ignited it, slung it by
cord from his neck, so that it would hang
below his feet, and started up the slender
''ladder. -
Hand and foot he went up, peg after
peg, with a nonchalant ease which would
have done credit to the most daring of
sailors. Even that sailor would have
been pardOned if he was little shaky,
while climbing a tall factory chimney by
the lightning rod.
On reaching the lower limb, 1913 feet
from the ground, he took his torch in one
hand, waved it to and fro, until it smoked
freely, and then crawled out along the
bare branch until he was in reach of the
coveted nest.
Examining it first on one side, and then
on the other, he shouted down as cheer
fully as if his climb had been nothing,
mo honey!'
Leaving the comb untouched, he de-
scended, with a smile, and reached the
ground without the least tremOr.--

Amury to Ones Own Trade.

A vulgar spoken man can do a great
deal of injury unknowingly to ones
trade. There are men who can never be
restrained. IF anything goes at variance
with them, they make no scruple of
hinging out an oath or vile epithet. To
ladies this is particularly distasteful, and
there are sensitive gentlemen too who
can not endure it. Neither may say any
thing, but they quietly stay away, and
the result is that while one retains tho
foul mouthed mans trade he may lose
the custom of four or five equally as
good, If not better. The defect is hard
one to correct Globe Democrat.
